Dagon let out a roar, spreading both palms forward as the sea behind it began to surge violently!
"Roar—!"
A massive number of fish shikigami burst forth from beneath the sea, so numerous that they nearly filled the entire field of vision for all three of them!
Naobito Zenin, standing at the very front, bore the brunt of the assault as countless fish shikigami lunged at his vital points with bared fangs.
Dagon had expected to see blood and flesh fly, but the instant those shikigami bit down on Naobito—
An invisible force knocked aside their guaranteed-hit attacks.
"Secret Technique: Falling Blossom Emotion!"
Naobito's entire body tensed as he deployed his Simple Domain with all his strength.
This was a secret technique unique to the great clans, allowing sorcerers incapable of deploying Domains to briefly contend against one.
Unfortunately, its range was tiny, barely enough to cover himself.
With a Simple Domain, Naobito could ignore the attacks of Death Swarm.
Dagon, in the distance, also recognized Naobito's peculiarity.
"So you do have some tricks. Then I'll shift my focus!"
"Old man gets seven, glasses guy gets three!"
"All of you, die!"
Faced with swarms of unavoidable fish shikigami, Nanami and Maki, who could not use Simple Domain, were not so fortunate.
The fish shikigami's attacks landed squarely on them.
In an instant, Maki and Nanami were engulfed by the fish shikigami and smashed backward.
"Nanami! Maki!" Naobito's heart lurched.
And in that brief moment of distraction, Dagon's fist appeared before him without warning.
"Where are you looking?"
"Bang—!!"
Naobito failed to react in time and was blasted away by the punch.
When he steadied himself, he suddenly realized that the attack had disrupted his Simple Domain!
In just a moment, vast numbers of fish shikigami had already sunk their teeth
